The Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra will take a five-day break from February 26 to March 1 as Rahul Gandhi will be visiting Cambridge University to deliver lectures for two days and attend important meetings in New Delhi, the Congress said on Wednesday.
“February 26th to March 1st will be break days to enable Rahul Gandhi to fulfil his long-standing commitment to deliver two special lectures at his alma mater Cambridge University (UK) on February 27th and February 28th and also to enable him to attend other important meetings in New Delhi,” Congress general secretary (communication) Jairam Ramesh said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
Mr. Ramesh also informed that after completing its Kanpur leg, the Yatra would have two rest days on Thursday and Friday. It would resume on the morning of February 24 from Moradabad in Uttar Pradesh and thereafter cover Sambhal, Aligarh, Hathras and Agra districts, before arriving in Rajasthan’s Dholpur.

Resuming its journey after the five-day break from Dholpur on March 2, the yatra would travel through Morena, Gwalior, Shivpuri, Guna, Shajapur and Ujjain, among other districts in Madhya Pradesh.
“On March 5 at 2 p.m. Rahul Gandhi will have darshan at the most sacred Shri Mahakaleshwar Temple in Ujjain. He had last had this darshan on November 29, 2022, during the Bharat Jodo Yatra,” Mr. Ramesh said.
